1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundPrevious investigations assessing the genetic cause of pediatric hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) found underlying genetic mutations in 50-60% of cases. The purpose of our study was to analyze whether this number can be augmented by applying next-generation sequencing and directing further diagnostics by discussing unsolved cases in a multidisciplinary board. METHODS AND

results42 patients with the diagnoses of HCM made before age 18 years were treated in our center from 2000 to 2016. Genetic analysis was performed in 36 subjects, a genetic defect was detected in 29 (78%) patients. 15 individuals (42%) had pathogenic variants in genes encoding sarcomere proteins, and 5 (14%) in genes coding for components of the RAS/MAPK signaling pathway. 4 subjects (11%) had mutations in the GAA gene (Pompe disease), and 3 (8%) had Frataxin repeat expansions (Friedreich's ataxia). One patient each showed a mutation in BAG3 and LMNA. Discussion of unsolved HCM cases after performing next-generation sequencing (28 genes) in an interdisciplinary board unraveled the genetic cause in 9 subjects (25%).

conclusionA definite genetic diagnosis can be reached in nearly 80% with HCM of childhood onset. Next-generation sequencing in conjunction with a multidisciplinary cooperation can enhance the diagnostic yield substantially. This may be important for risk stratification, treatment planning and genetic counseling.
